hi everyone !! i was just bored . and was looking through my old posts . i was surprised to see that i actually signed on as a member on March 15 2008 . after lurking for a month . at the time that i joined . i was tumbling with a 2-- 8ounce plastic rolling stones rock tumblers . that were Chistmas gift to my daughters . and just ordered my 2-3lb Lortone from the Rock Shed Which has be rolling continuous ever since ( except when we have went on vacations ) now i also have another 3 lber a- 6lb Thumler- a 12 lb Lortone -a 12lb Thumler -- or workforce saw . a Frantom 5 wheel polisher. and a huge ammount of rocks . most of which came from the amazing members of this Board . i have learned so much more , than i thought that i ever could have . all through what is shared so openly HERE . i have made friends with people from all over the World .that i never met in person or most likely, never will more than a few. i do know that when i do meet any . there will be an instant connection .of friendship. when i started i was not even a rock rookie i did not have a clue . now , I am about to go down in the basement & make a few CABS ( i did not even know what a Cabochon was ) until Cutter told me in a phone conversation after i bought my 1st FRB of rocks . THANKS !! to Mark and Sands . and to all of the many members on this forum that have made an effort to help in any way.
in Friendship , --paul

Paul - this is a great place to pick up tips, isn't it. I know I keep picking up new information all the time. Just glad to see we're still growing with great people. Here's to another 2, 5, 10 years... Todd

Congratulations on the anniversary, Paul. I've been here a little over a year and can't believe the info I've learned too. What a great group!
